The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing healthcare expenditure, increasing adoption of biologics, rising demand for fast-acting, high-efficacy drugs, advancements in biologic treatments, and rising government regulations for migraine drugs. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for preventive treatment, rising adoption of biologics, telemedicine and digital health integration, personalized and targeted therapies, and increase in self-administration.
The growing prevalence of migraine cases is expected to drive the expansion of the ajovy market in the coming years. Migraine is a neurological disorder characterized by recurring and severe headaches, often accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and heightened sensitivity to light and sound. The rise in migraine cases is attributed to factors including increased stress levels, lifestyle changes, environmental triggers, and genetic predisposition. Ajovy plays a crucial role in managing migraines by reducing the frequency and severity of attacks, providing relief to individuals with chronic or episodic migraines. For example, in March 2024, The House of Commons Library reported that approximately 10 million individuals in the UK are affected by migraines. Additionally, The Migraine Trust highlighted that over one million people experience chronic migraines, enduring symptoms on at least 15 days per month. This growing prevalence underscores the demand for effective treatments like ajovy, fueling market growth.
A significant trend in the ajovy market is the development of advanced monoclonal antibody syringes to enhance usability, ensure accurate dosing, and improve patient adherence to migraine prevention therapies. Monoclonal antibody syringes are pre-filled devices containing lab-engineered antibodies designed to precisely target antigens linked to specific diseases. For instance, Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., a Japan-based pharmaceutical company, introduced the AJOVY Subcutaneous Injection 225 mg Syringe, an anti-CGRP monoclonal antibody developed using recombinant DNA technology for migraine prevention. This injection targets the CGRP ligand, blocking its interaction with receptors to reduce migraine frequency. Administered via subcutaneous injection, it offers flexible dosing options - 225 mg every four weeks or 675 mg every 12 weeks - providing patients with greater convenience and positioning it as a distinctive product in its category.
In June 2024, Lotus Pharmaceuticals, a Taiwan-based pharmaceutical company, acquired the Thailand operations of Teva Pharmaceutical for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition aims to bolster Lotus’ presence in Southeast Asia, diversify its portfolio across oncology, women's health, ophthalmology, and respiratory products, and strengthen its distribution in hospital and pharmacy channels. The move is expected to drive sustained profit growth and enhance healthcare accessibility in the region. Teva Pharma (Thailand) Company Limited, a Thailand-based pharmaceutical company, specializes in treatments for migraines and other central nervous system (CNS) disorders.
